There's Taxes Everywhere

I was toting my bag of receipts into the IRS
When a squirrely little man stared down his nose at me
across his desk
He had my whole life on his computer screen
He adjusted his glasses shook a finger at me

He said, “We better not catch you holding out on
Uncle Sam”
And I said, “Listen Jack, I’ve paid every tax in this here
land

CHORUS: There taxes everywhere man taxes everywhere man
I pay more than my share man, it’s out the derrière
